Pretty Pretty Please...

...with a cherry ontop forgive me? Ok, whew! Thats out of the way.

I suck a blogging. Recently. I used to be good at it. What happened? I don't know. Let's fix it!

So since I've been back in the CR a lot has been happening. The dearest boy turned 21 (yay for being legal in US terms!) and so we had a little fiesta for him.

I got a cake, blew up balloons and hung party hats from my ceiling.


I also made the traditional arroz con pollo (rice with chicken) for his birthday dinner! yummmm


So after all the partying, this slowed down a little and I actually had to do work. boo. Only for about 3 days. Thennnnn...superbowl arrived! GO PACKERS! (Really go anyone against the Steelers hah)

We went into the capital city, San Jose, and met up with a bunch of other volunteers to watch the game and hang out. Where did we go you ask?



And we got wings and curly fries! yummmmmmmmmm!

So now I'm back in my little ole town, trying to be a good weight loser and am struggling. First I went home to all this delicious food, now I've barely paid attention since I've been back. I just want to hang out, preferrably on a beach (which isn't happening anytime soon) and drink strawberry daquiris...yum!

But anyway. I worked out this morning at 4:45am (long story as to why I was even awake at that ungodly hour) and am now in town to buy lots of veggies and fruits from the farmer's market. I'm going to stick to this plan, even if its the death of me! I figure if I die and am (finally) skinny, atleast I got to buy that ONE pair of skinny minnie jeans and wear them for a die (ok, so I have to die like a week after I'm skinny to make it count ). 

The beautiful sunrise this morning

Today I'm making my chili again, but this time adding in some pumpkin to see how it works out. *fingers crossed* I'm also going to make pumpkin pancakes this weekend! :) 

So I hope everyone is having a good February (I can't believe we're already a month in to 2011) and is doing their best to get healthy!
